Main engine connecting rod

PROJECT: Main engine connecting rod circularity restoration
LOCATION: Greece
CLIENT: CLAN SHIPMANAGEMENT
DURATION OF REPAIRS: 7 Days

M/V ALIADO of CLAN SHIPMANAGEMENT suffered severe damage on the main engine Unit No1 connecting rod.

The main engine connecting rod arrived at our factory for inspection, measurements and damage assessment.

It was found that the big end bore was out of round and restoration of circularity was necessary.

After a series of measurements and NDT inspections, including high-accuracy measurements with portable CMM, the rod was machined on our CNC Boring machine and the circularity of the big end bore was restored to maker’s dimensions and tolerances
